Abstract

The present work aims to present the types of docking or dock works which are part of a maritime port, where these works play a very important role, one of them is to provide vessels with adequate and safe conditions for their permanence in the port or also to carry out the necessary port operations such as loading, unloading, boarding and disembarking of passengers, vehicles and merchandise. The types of piers are very varied, among them we have gravity piers, pile piers, screen piers and auxiliary piers and loading docks of which we will present their characteristics or construction phases. As time goes by, maritime works have been of great importance since they allow strategic trade to develop and at the same time the economic development of countries, which is why the type of structure to be built in a port must be taken into account. The springs, as well as all civil works, need constant maintenance to last their useful life, which is why this document mentions some of the alternatives that can be given to existing springs based on studies carried out by other researchers.
